Jordan’s Abdullah plans Ramallah visit to show support for Abbas
Jordan’s King Abdullah II is planning an official state visit to the Palestinian Authority next week, to the Yedioth Ahronoth daily reports.
Palestinian, Israeli and Jordanian officials are in the final stages of talks over the visit to Ramallah, which is slated to last just a few hours.
The visit comes after three weeks of tensions over the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, and is reportedly meant to show support for Abbas.
